1408 Lake Morey Rd Fairlee, VT 05045

Exceptional cottage with private water-frontage on Lake Morey. Daytime is best spent on the lake - swimming, fishing, sailing, kayaking, sunbathing, while the nighttime is graced by sunset cocktail cruises, al fresco dining, calls of the loons and the occasional fireworks display. And while the lake can take center-stage, the inside of the home is a sure charmer. An addition to the original cottage in 1989 added two bedrooms, a full bath, large bay window with seating area over looking the water, space for a writing desk and a laundry room, in addition to the comfortably sized living room with fireplace. The third level, reminiscent of the upper level of a ship, with a darling bunk room and 4th bedroom, both with views of the lake. Two levels have access to covered porches with custom screen doors so you can feel the summer breeze whispering through the home. Live edge wooden countertops in the kitchen with a sit-up peninsula bar, stone floor, custom staircase handrails, and Woodstove in the dining room provide character and functionality. The property is accented by abundant gardens and beautifully designed stonework featuring stone walkways, a grill patio, and meandering stonewalls, while the lakefront portion of the property is profiled by flat lawn for yard games, a deck for reading on chaise lounges, and boat dock to allow for easy access to summertime cruises. Enjoy your morning cup of coffee or invite family & friends over to sit out and enjoy dinner on the expansive deck overlooking the lake and the undeveloped, protected hillside to the east. And on a rainy summer evening, extend the awning to sit outside and watch the passing thunderstorm, or cozy up by the fireplace inside and play a board game. With its year-round occupancy potential, this property affords the winter enthusiast the opportunity to enjoy the 4.5mi. skate loop or play pick-up pond hockey games at Lake Morey Resort (also home to 18-hole Lake Morey Country Club). This is premier lakefront.
